What Our Clients Are Saying"experience ko very affordable! you are not checked by one doctor only, but by every specialist they have!!, i had cataract at age 52, the examining doctor suspects i may develop glaucoma so he had me checked by their glaucoma specialist. when i complained of dryness in the eyes, another specialist examined me. btw, i was initially examined and operated on by a retina specialist of theirs all went well!!"
Brought my mom there for removal of cataract... Our experience with this clinic and with Dr Aquino who was mom's surgeon was nevertheless outstanding..." "I was here years back...The doctors who attended to me were very accomodating and were even able to build well a doctor-patient relationship..."
